The EOL process is extremely delicate process and if not the nr.1 cause 
we continuously have lost new contributors in the past and continue to

Matt could have contacted the QA community directly instead of going

there instead of proceeding with the ticket and spend their time 
focusing on something that falls within their realm to fix or decide upon.
